Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0974754A2] Upon starting instruction of a compressor before the compressor is started, a pressurized water jet line 20 is opened and pressurized water is jetted to the inside of the compressor. By this manner, a dry operation with rotors and a mechanical seal kept in a dry state is definitely prevented and the compressor can be started even after it is stopped for a long hour. Further, the compressed air is supplied to the inside of the water tank, and the water from the water tank is jetted to the inside of the compressor by its pressure. The compressed air ejected from the water tank is cooled below a saturation temperature of water content and the water content thereof is condensed and separated. The separated water content is supplied to the inside of the compressor, and an excess circulating water is discharged from the water tank. Thus, a long hour continuous operation can be performed without replenishing water. <IMAGE>
